False positive virus detection is pretty common with pyinstaller from what I can see on the Googles. It's actually very common problem with less-popular compilers and languages too. Not sure what it is that trips them all up. Submit your exe to virustotal.com and then the only real solution is to submit it to each major antivirus vendor as a false positive and hope things get changed. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
